find the equation of axis and directrix of parabola ysquare+6y-2x=+5=0 Share with your friends Share 0 Lalit Mehra answered this The equation of the parabola is y2+6y-2x+5=0.y2+6y-2x+5=0⇒y2+6y + 9 = 2x-5+9⇒y+32=2x+2Putting y + 3 =Y and x + 2 =X, we getY2=2XHere, 4a = 2⇒a=12Equation of the axis is Y=0 i.e. y + 3 = 0 or y = -3.Equation of the directrix is X=-12⇒x+2=-12 or x=-52. 1 View Full Answer
